Import and Export Wizard for Windows Live Writer
As I’ve mentioned before, my favorite application for writing posts for my blogs is Windows Live Writer. Sometimes I use it on more than one PC. In such cases what I want is to have all my plug-ins and other settings to be synchronized on all computers. Doing it manually requires time and effort. Since I haven’t found anything like this on internet, I’ve decided to create a plug-in that will do it for me.
The wizard allows you to export chosen settings from Writer to external file and/or even on FTP folder (and soon SkyDrive). So when you import settings on another PC you can access this data remotely. In addition this is also a good way of backing up your configuration so you can restore to your existing working environment right after installing the Live Writer and the Import/Export plug-in.
